Cylinder over Clarksville Sango area, TN
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
A large ball shaped glowing mass looked like it was drifting toward my location headed south at a slow speed. It then changed into a cylindrical shape and headed west . The cylinder shape began extending down toward the ground and disappeared. I would guess the size to be100-150 feet long and about half that distance in diameter. The position of the cylindrical shape was vertical to the ground and the only well defined lines were the vertical outline of the cylinder shape. I did not recognize any surfaces that appeared to be solid and saw no lights The sky was clear of clouds .
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #166493). Witness text is preserved verbatim, including its spelling; nothing is edited beyond formatting.
Ask for the records
What would the paper say?
For a dated, located U.S. sighting, FAA radar data and ATC communications are the records most likely to exist. Through Aletheca, the house instrument, anyone can commission the request — filed, chased, and published in the open, refusals included. The draft goes over already written: the records sought, and the date window they would live in.
